I recommend the Incal. It has pages that no other artist could have come up with. Take a look at this:

The problem with Madwoman is that Moebius did it in one of his "loose lines" stages; besides, since the project took years to get completed, you see that as time progresses, Moebius seems to get even more "loose", and sometimes his art looks quite a bit rushed. In a way, that's the same thing that has happened to a lot of artists (and hence phrases like "his old stuff was better").

Only Humanoids stuff I have is Muse, Metal (great story), Olympus, Dominion, I Am Legion, and Zombies That Ate The World. I've been debating getting Clockwerx, but other than that there hasn't been anything else that has really caught my eye.

Yeah I got the rest of I Am Legion through DDP also. Well I started with issue #3. I still had the first issue Wildstorm did when DC had the license collecting issue's one and 2. But DDP is also how I got Zombies Who Ate the World.

Oh yeah, I remember DC had that license. I never saw any of the Wildstorm editions, were they good? Similar to the DDP editions (besides having 2 issues together)?

Midas wrote:That was an awesome post! Great pictures and analysis. Not sure I love the new coloring. Very interesting that Eagle retouched/redid that page of block mania. Not entirely surprising since the original Progs tell the story in 8-page chunks. I'm guessing Eagle didn't like what that did to the "flow" so they had somebody redraw/fill in that page to eliminate the "recap". Glad that IDW stuck with the original page there.

I might pick this up in trade as they release it.

This is outrageous! IDW has fucked up the third issue of Judge Dredd Classics. I can’t believe how an editor could be so negligent and clumsy to mutilate an issue of the legendary Wagner & Ezquerra saga. There are pages in disorder. This is a serious mistake but there is something even worse: there is one missing page. I just can’t believe what a mess they’ve done with Judge Dredd.

Never did answer this. Their copy of I Am Legion was just your basic 64 page Prestige Format book. Not the singles that DDP later did. Olympus was just your basic GN as well, maybe a little bit larger then normal but I could be wrong. I never did see what DDP's version of it looked like.
